I receive many emails everyday from various webmasters asking how they can make their blog more successful.  I have decided to post this article to explain a few basic things you can do to make your blog more successful and profitable.

Make Your Blog a Niche

The key to a successful blog is to find a niche and go after it.  A niche is a particular small sector of a certain topic.  Instead of just creating a blog on “Automobile Repair” you might consider creating a blog on “Jaguar Automotive Repair” or even “Jaguar S Type Automotive Repair”.  By creating a niche blog, this will increase your position in Google and other search engines, as well as attracting more viewers and loyal followers

Perfect Advertising Placement

An important aspect of profitable blogging is the placement of proper advertisements.  Most internet users as well as bloggers hate popup and pop under ads.  The best form of advertisement to use is Google AdSense.  Google’s ads usually pay pretty well and most web users don’t mind them being on a page they are on.  These ads don’t delay the loading speed of the page and actually add to the look and design of it with the options Google gives you.

Meeting Other Bloggers and Blog Owners

The best way to market and promote your blog is to meet and chat with other bloggers and blog owners.  There are many different communities and forums online where you can do this, but the one that we recommend is BlogProducer.com.  BlogProducer.com is a free community with many different forums where you can chat about the basics of blogging, exchange links with other blog owners, talk about how to increase your revenue, and much more.  You can check out BlogProducer.com at www.BlogProducer.com

Good Luck and Keep Blogging!
